The best restaurants serving British food in Heath and Reach Central Bedfordshire East of England

Sadly shut forever unless someone comes up with extortionate price Fullers want. Could be such a great destination pub with right chef

Took over an hour for food to arrive for 2 people, lukewarm food, dirty salad bar and dirty floors. We had previously visited a month earlier and had same experience but hoped it was a one off, however after giving it another go I woukd say we won't return and wouldn't advise anyone wait this long for food for only 2 people. We should have left after 30 minutes

If you are looking for refined then this is not for you. The Bedford room is somewhat drab and to be frank needs a good clean. I was sat next to the window cill which has a few ornaments which had clearly not be dusted or washed down for some time. I appreciate that spiders can spin webs through the summer very quickly but this genuinely needs a good clean. When the room is not clean this makes me query what else is not clean! Having pre booked this tea for a girlfriends birthday I could not fault the afternoon tea itself. The sandwiches had a good amount of filling and the scones were light for me, perfect. The cake selection for someone who is dairy free was great and the service was also good. There is an excellent selection of quality teas and other drinks too. Overall I would of liked to give a very good rating for the tea itself as it was lovely but the surroundings and cleanliness really let this down and it could be so easily rectified.

Lovely traditional English pub serving up great food with half decent beer in a lovely location. I'd love to see a little more craft beer on tap (perhaps a Verdant?!)

Had Sunday lunch here with the family to celebrate a 70th birthday. This was my second visit to eat here, the first time was excellent and so it was this time. Three of us had Lamb Kleftiko and two had pork belly. Food came hot flavoursome. Service was excellent and good value for quality food. If you like salad, they are every bit as good as you would get in Greece. Can’t fault it for friendliness, service and food.

I was booked in here with the rest of my family for the 2 nights either side of my son's wedding. The accommodation is situated in the car park with the beer garden opposite. This made it too noisy for me to get an early night on the Friday as there were cars driving right past my room and a very noisy party in the beer garden. The person in the room above made a telephone call and I heard most of his side of that too. It finally quietened down around midnight. Saturday we were too busy partying elsewhere and when we got back at half midnight everything was quiet. The bed however was one of the comfiest I've ever slept on! I did struggle with the room being very hot as there was only 1 small opening window and I couldn't really sleep with the door open! As the website says it provides Bed and Breakfast, I was looking forward to a cooked breakfast. Sadly the reason there is a fridge in your room, is because you get presented with a small carton of milk and there is a small pack of cornflakes in your room, plus a cereal bar. Not what any of my family were expecting!
